2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The December 31, 2010 condensed consolidated balance sheet included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures including notes otherwise required by GAAP.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s statement of financial position, the Company’s results of operations and its cash flows for the interim periods. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011 or for any other periods.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and its controlled subsidiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Areas of the financial statements where estimates may have the most significant effect include the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable and sales allowances, lives of tangible and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived and other assets, realization of deferred tax assets, accrued liabilities, stock-based compensation, revenue recognition, valuation of acquired deferred revenue, goodwill and intangible assets, and provisions for income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues are generated primarily from four sources: licensing of software products, providing maintenance and support for those products, providing consulting services for those products and subscriptions, including access to market intelligence, analysis and business development related services. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 985-605, Software-Revenue Recognition (“ASC 985-605”), and in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, Revenue Recognition. Where services are essential to the software functionality or the services carry a significant degree of risk or unique acceptance criteria, the Company recognizes the software and services revenue together in accordance with ASC 605-35, Revenue Recognition-Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts (“ASC 605-35”).

Table of Contents

Under its perpetual software license agreements, the Company recognizes revenue from the license of software upon execution of a signed agreement and delivery of the software provided that the software license fees are fixed and determinable, collection of the resulting receivable is probable, and vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists to allow the allocation of a portion of the total fee to any undelivered elements of the arrangement. In the event that VSOE does not exist for any undelivered element, the entire arrangement fee is recognized over the longer of the services, subscription, or maintenance period.

If VSOE exists to allow the allocation of a portion of the total fee to undelivered elements of the arrangement, the residual amount in the arrangement allocated to software license fees is recognized as revenue when all of the following are met:

 

   

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists. It is our practice to require a signed contract or an accepted purchase order for existing customers.

 

   

Delivery has occurred. We deliver software by secure electronic means or physical delivery. Both means of delivery transfer title and risk to the customer. Shipping terms are generally FOB shipping point.

 

   

The software license sale is fixed and determinable. We recognize revenue for the license component of multiple element arrangements only when VSOE of fair value of any undelivered elements is known, any uncertainties surrounding customer acceptance are resolved and there are no refund, return, or cancellation rights associated with the delivered elements. Software license sales are generally considered fixed and determinable when payment terms are within 180 days.

 

   

Collectibility is probable. Amounts receivable must be collectible. For license arrangements that do not meet our collectibility standards, revenue is recognized as cash is received.

The Company’s software license agreements do not include customer acceptance provisions; if acceptance provisions are provided, delivery is deemed to occur upon acceptance.

The Company also sells its software products under term license agreements. Term licenses offer the customer rights to software for a specific fixed period of time, usually twelve months. In some cases implementation services are also included in the initial period fee. Hosting services may also be included in the fee. Customers generally prepay for these term licenses, and these prepayments are recorded as deferred revenue and revenue is recognized over the contractual period of the term license.

Software license fee revenues from resellers are recognized using a sell-through model whereby the Company recognizes revenue when evidence of a sales arrangement exists between reseller and end-user.

The Company’s standard payment terms for its software license agreements are generally within 180 days. The Company considers the software license fee to be fixed and determinable unless the fee is subject to refund or adjustment, or is not payable within 180 days. Revenue from arrangements with payment terms extending beyond 180 days is recognized as payments become due and payable.

Sales taxes and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are presented on a net basis and, as such, are excluded from revenues.

Maintenance and support services include unspecified periodic software upgrades or enhancements, bug fixes and phone support for perpetual software licenses. Initial annual maintenance and support are sold as a consistent percentage of the software price. Customers generally prepay for maintenance, and these prepayments are recorded as deferred revenue and revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance period.

The Company’s consulting services consist primarily of implementation services, training, and design services. Consulting services are also regularly sold separately from other elements, generally on a time-and-materials basis. Other revenue mainly includes fees collected for the Company’s annual user conference, which is typically held in the second quarter.

Consulting services are generally not essential to the functionality of the Company’s software and are usually completed in three to six months, though larger implementations may take longer. The Company generally recognizes revenues for these services as they are performed. In the case of software arrangements where services are essential to the software functionality or the services carry a significant degree of risk or unique acceptance criteria, the Company recognizes the software and services revenue together in accordance with ASC 605-35, Revenue Recognition-Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts (“ASC 605-35”). Direct costs related to these arrangements are deferred and expensed as the related revenue is recognized.

Implementation, installation and other consulting services are generally billed based upon hourly rates, plus reimbursable out-of-pocket expenses and related administrative fees. Revenue on these arrangements is recognized based on hours actually incurred at the contract billing rates, plus out-of-pocket expenses. Implementation, installation and other consulting services revenue under fixed-fee arrangements is generally recognized as the services are performed if the Company has the ability to demonstrate it can reasonably estimate percentage of completion.

Table of Contents

The Company generally sells training services at a fixed rate for each specific training session at a per-attendee price, and revenue is recognized when the customer attends the training. The Company also sells training on a time-and-materials basis. In situations where customers pay for services in advance of the services being rendered, the related prepayment is recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue when the services are performed.

Subscription revenues, including access to market intelligence analysis and business development services generally provide customers with access to the GovWin or INPUT networks for a fixed period of time, usually twelve months. Customers generally prepay for these subscription offerings, and these prepayments are recorded as deferred revenue and revenue is recognized over the term of the subscription.

For sales arrangements involving multiple elements, where software licenses are sold together with maintenance and support, consulting, training, or subscription offerings, the Company recognizes revenue using the residual method. The residual accounting method is used since VSOE has not been established for software as it is not typically sold on a standalone basis. Using this method, the Company first allocates revenue to the undelivered elements on the basis of VSOE. The difference between the total arrangement fee and the amount deferred for the undelivered elements is recognized as revenue for the delivered elements, which is usually the software component. The Company has established VSOE for standard offerings of maintenance and support and consulting services based on the price charged when these elements are sold on a standalone basis.

For maintenance and support agreements, VSOE is generally based upon historical renewal rates.

For consulting services and training sold as part of a multiple element sales arrangement, VSOE is based upon the prices charged for those services when sold separately. For sales arrangements that require the Company to deliver future specified products or services for which VSOE of fair value is not available, the entire arrangement is deferred until VSOE is available or delivery has occurred. For income statement classification purposes revenue is allocated first to the undelivered element based on VSOE. Any remaining arrangement fee is then allocated to the software license.

In cases where perpetual software licenses and other elements are sold in combination with subscription offerings or term licenses, all revenue is recognized ratably over the longest period of performance for the undelivered elements. For income statement classification purposes revenue is allocated based on VSOE for maintenance, training, and consulting services. For subscription offerings, VSOE has not yet been established, and revenue is therefore allocated to the undelivered subscription or term license based on the contractually stated renewal rate. Under the residual method, any remaining arrangement fee is allocated to the perpetual software license.

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820-10”) defines fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value and expands required disclosures about fair value measurements. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company measured its money market funds at fair value based on quoted prices that are equivalent to par value (Level 1). The Company did not have any assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant other observable inputs (Level 2) or significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), or any liabilities measured at fair value as prescribed by ASC 820-10.

The Company’s nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, and long-lived tangible assets including property and equipment. The valuation methods used to determine fair value require a significant degree of management judgment to determine the key assumptions which include projected revenues, royalty rates and appropriate discount rates. As such, the Company classifies nonfinancial assets subjected to nonrecurring fair value adjustments at Level 3 measurements. At March 31, 2011 the Company did not have any nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Financial instruments are defined as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity or contracts that impose an obligation to deliver cash, or other financial instruments to a third-party. Cash and cash equivalents, which are primarily cash and funds held in money-market accounts on a short-term basis, are carried at fair market value. At March 31, 2011, the Company’s cash equivalents were invested in a money market fund that invests exclusively in AAA-rated (i) bills, notes and bonds issued by the U.S. Treasury, (ii) U.S. Government repurchase agreements fully collateralized by U.S. Treasury obligations, and (iii) U.S. Government guaranteed securities. As a result, the risk of non-performance of the money market fund is very low. The investments have a net asset value equal to $1.00 with no withdrawal restrictions, and there are no investments in auction rate securities. In addition, the money market fund has not experienced a decline in value and its net asset value has historically not dropped below $1.00. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2011 consisted of $38.0 million in money market investments and $31.8 million in cash. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2010 consisted of $66.6 million in money market investments and $10.0 million in cash.

The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity term of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s debt is reported in the financial statements at cost. Although there is no active public market for the debt, the Company has determined that the carrying value of its debt, which includes a debt discount, approximates fair value as a result of the Company’s recent debt refinancing at current market rates (See Note 6,

Debt) as well as the fact that the debt contains a variable interest rate component; however, at March 31, 2011, the interest rate was fixed due to the interest rate floor in place under the Company’s credit agreement in conjunction with the prevailing interest rates. The estimated fair value of the Company’s debt at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $197.1 million and $197.6 million, respectively.

The Company’s policy with respect to derivative financial instruments is to record them at fair value with changes in value recognized in earnings during the period of change. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had no derivative financial instruments.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures concerning transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy and a roll forward of the activity of assets and liabilities measured in Level 3 of the hierarchy. In addition, ASU 2010-06 clarifies existing disclosure requirements to require fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities and disclosure regarding the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure Level 2 or Level 3 fair value measurements on a recurring and nonrecurring basis. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009 except for the roll forward of activity for Level 3 fair value measurements, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, and the FASB issued ASU 2009-14, Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements, on revenue recognition that became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted. The adoption of these standards did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. ASU 2010-28 addresses how to apply Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test when a reporting unit has a zero or negative carrying amount. ASU 2010-28 requires for those reporting units with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform Step 2 of the impairment test if qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. ASU 2010-28 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-28 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Maconomy A/S

On June 3, 2010, the Company commenced a tender offer for 100% of the stock of Maconomy A/S (“Maconomy”). Maconomy is an international provider of software solutions and services for professional services firms. On July 6, 2010, having concluded that all of the terms of the tender offer had been satisfied, the Company announced that the purchase of the tendered shares would be completed on July 9, 2010. The tender offer was at an offering price of Danish Krone (“DKK”) 20.50 per share or approximately $3.40 per share at June 3, 2010.

The purchase price for Maconomy is $67.6 million as of December 31, 2010, which includes $10.2 million of cash paid for shares purchased prior to the completion of the tender offer that were classified as “available-for-sale securities” at June 30, 2010. As of December 31, 2010, the Company owns 100% of the outstanding shares of Maconomy. In addition, the Company paid approximately $6.9 million in acquisition-related costs and integration costs which are primarily included in “General and Administrative” expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The Company recorded noncontrolling interests as of July 9, 2010, of $3.2 million for the 5% of the outstanding shares of Maconomy not purchased by the Company. The amount was determined based on the fair value of the net assets of Maconomy. The Company initiated a mandatory redemption procedure to acquire all remaining shares of Maconomy (approximately 0.5 million shares) for DKK 20.50 per share. In the third quarter of 2010, the Company purchased approximately 3% of the noncontrolling interests for $1.8 million. In the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company acquired the remaining outstanding 2% of the noncontrolling interest for $1.6 million. There are no remaining noncontrolling interests as of December 31, 2010. In February 2011, the Company acquired approximately 75,000 shares of Maconomy upon the exercise of employee warrants that became exercisable at that time.

The maintenance and license customer relationships are being amortized using an accelerated amortization method over 10 years and four years, respectively, and the related amortization expenses are included in “Sales and Marketing” expense. The in-process research and development will be amortized over its useful life to “Cost of Software License Fees” when it has reached technological feasibility. The weighted average useful life of the intangible assets is estimated at 7.6 years.

The goodwill is primarily due to the benefits to the Company and Maconomy resulting from the combination. The combination provides multiple benefits for both companies such as expanding the Company’s geographic reach. Maconomy’s large presence in Europe is an ideal complement to the Company’s strong position in the U.S. market. Maconomy’s professional services markets are a strong complement to the Company’s established project focused vertical markets. The goodwill recorded in this transaction is not deductible for tax purposes.

The results of the Maconomy business have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition.

Pro forma Financial Information (unaudited)

The following unaudited pro forma summary presents consolidated information of the Company as if the acquisitions of INPUT and Maconomy had occurred on January 1, 2009 (in thousands). The acquisitions of WMG and S.I.R.A are not included in the pro forma summary as their financial position and results of operations were not significant to the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. The pro forma financial information gives effect to the Company’s acquisitions of INPUT and Maconomy by the application of the pro forma adjustments to the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company. Such unaudited pro forma financial information is based on the historical financial statements of the Company and the acquired businesses and certain adjustments, which the Company believes to be reasonable based on current available information, to give effect to these transactions. Pro forma adjustments were made from January 1, 2009 up to the date of each acquisition with the actual results reflected thereafter in the pro forma financial information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data does not purport to represent what the Company’s results of operations actually would have been if the acquisition of INPUT and Maconomy had occurred on January 1, 2009, or what such results will be for any future periods. The actual results in the periods following each acquisition date (October 1, 2010 for INPUT and July 9, 2010 for Maconomy), may differ significantly from that reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data for a number of reasons including, but not limited to, differences between the assumptions used to prepare the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data and the actual amounts.

The financial information of Maconomy has been extracted from the historical financial statements of Maconomy, which were prepared in Danish Krone (DKK) and prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the IASB (“IFRS”), which is a method of accounting different from GAAP. The financial information of INPUT has been extracted from their historical financial statements and were prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Unaudited adjustments have been made to present the Maconomy IFRS information under GAAP and adjusting the results of each acquired business to reflect additional amortization expense that would have been incurred assuming the fair value adjustments to intangible assets had been applied from January 1, 2009, as well as additional pro forma adjustments, to give effect to these transactions occurring on January 1, 2009. After application of GAAP adjustments for Maconomy, the DKK amounts were translated to U.S. Dollars using the average exchange rate from January 1, 2010 up to the date of acquisition (in thousands):

For purposes of these pro forma financial statements, the common stock rights offering that the Company completed in June 2009 was given effect as if it occurred on January 1, 2009. The Company also assumed pro forma borrowings on the term loans of approximately $43.3 million on January 1, 2009, which were in addition to the historical debt outstanding on such date in order to consummate these acquisitions. On a pro forma basis, the proceeds from the rights offering and the additional borrowings combined with the available cash on January 1, 2009 were used to finance the acquisitions.

4. (LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE

Net (loss) income per share is computed under the provisions of ASC 260, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260”). Basic (loss) earnings per share is computed using net (loss) income and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted (loss) earnings per share reflect the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus any potentially dilutive shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive shares consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, unvested restricted stock and shares from the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”).

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 all common stock equivalents, or 10,185,859 shares, were excluded in the computation of diluted (loss) income per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive due to the current year net loss. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, 4,658,209 shares of common stock, were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted (loss) income per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. These excluded shares related to potentially dilutive securities primarily associated with stock options granted by the Company pursuant to its equity plans.

5. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The additional goodwill adjustment associated with the INPUT acquisition was due to recording a deferred tax liability in connection with the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of purchased deferred revenue.

The Company performed an annual impairment test for goodwill as of December 31, 2010 and determined that there was no impairment of goodwill, as the Company’s fair value was assessed and it was determined the fair value exceeded the carrying value. There have been no events or changes in circumstances that have occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2011 that indicate that there has been an impairment of goodwill.

In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, the Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset. There were no impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2011 or 2010.

6. DEBT

The Company has maintained a credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders led by Credit Suisse (the “Credit Agreement”) since 2005. In August 2009, the Company amended the Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”). As a result of the amendment, the Company extended the maturity of $129.4 million of term loans to April 22, 2013. The remaining $50.2 million of the term loans outstanding (the non-extended portion) was set to mature on April 22, 2011. In addition, the expiration of $22.5 million of the Company’s $30.0 million revolving credit facility (no amounts were outstanding) was also extended to April 22, 2013. The remaining $7.5 million of the revolving credit facility expired in April 2010.

On November 3, 2010, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) which provided for $230.0 million in borrowings, consisting of $200.0 million in secured term loans maturing in November 2016 and a secured revolving credit facility of $30.0 million maturing in November 2015. The new revolving credit facility was undrawn at closing. All amounts outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement of $146.8 million, except for approximately $805,000 in letters of credit that remained outstanding, were prepaid in full out of proceeds from the New Credit Agreement. The remainder of the proceeds of $48.1 million, less debt issuance costs of approximately $5.1 million, from the New Credit Agreement will be used for general corporate purposes. The New Credit Agreement included an original issuance debt discount of 1% or $2.0 million which will be amortized over the term of the loan using the effective interest method and was included in the $5.1 million of debt issuance costs noted above.

Under the New Credit Agreement, for both the term loans and the revolving credit facility, the Company will pay an interest rate equal to the British Banker’s Association Interest Settlement Rates for dollar deposits (the “LIBO rate”) plus 4.00%, with a LIBO rate floor of 1.50%. Depending on the type of borrowing, interest rates under the Amended Credit Agreement for the term loans were either 2.25% or 4.25% above the LIBO rate and contained a LIBO rate floor of 2.00% and the rate for the revolving credit facility was 2.50% or 1.50%.

The Company pays a fee equal to 0.75% of the undrawn portion on the revolving credit facility that expires in November 2015. The New Credit Agreement requires the Company to make principal payments of $0.5 million per quarter through September 2016, with the remaining balance due in November 2016. In addition, the New Credit Agreement continues to require mandatory prepayments of the term loans from annual excess cash flow, as defined in the New Credit Agreement, and from the net proceeds of certain asset sales or equity issuances. In the first quarter of 2011, there was no mandatory principal prepayment under the New Credit Agreement.

Table of Contents

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the outstanding principal amount of the term loans was $199.0 million and $199.5 million, respectively, with interest at 5.5%. There were no borrowings under the revolving credit facility at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

At March 31, 2011, the Company was contingently liable under open standby letters of credit and bank guarantees issued by the Company’s banks in favor of third parties primarily relating to real estate lease obligations. These instruments reduce the Company’s available borrowings under the revolving credit facility and totaled $0.8 million at March 31, 2011. As a result, the available borrowings on the revolving credit facility were $29.2 million at March 31, 2011.

The following table summarizes future principal payments on the New Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2011 (in thousands);

The loans require compliance with certain financial covenants. There were no material modifications to the Amended Credit Agreement’s debt covenants under the New Credit Agreement, except that the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant under the Amended Credit Agreement was replaced by a maximum capital expenditures covenant under the New Credit Agreement. All loans under the New Credit Agreement are collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets (including the Company’s domestic subsidiaries’ assets). The New Credit Agreement also requires the Company to comply with non-financial covenants that restrict or limit certain corporate activities, including incurring additional indebtedness, guaranteeing obligations, creating liens on assets, entering into sale and leaseback transactions, engaging in certain mergers or consolidations, or paying cash dividends. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of March 31, 2011.

In April 2011, the Company made a voluntary prepayment of $15.0 million on the New Credit Agreement. The prepayment was applied first against the scheduled debt payments through March 2012, and second, ratably against the next scheduled debt payments in the amortization schedule.

7. INCOME TAXES

In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), the income tax provision for interim periods is based on the estimated annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year. The estimated effective tax rate is subject to adjustment in subsequent quarterly periods as the estimates are refined. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was 36.3% and 36.6%, respectively.

Table of Contents

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company established an additional liability under ASC 740-10, Income Taxes —Overall (“ASC 740-10”), of $157,000, associated with certain deductible expenses and tax credits. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recorded as part of the provision for income taxes. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had a liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $2.7 million, which included accrued interest and potential penalties of $189,000 and $46,000, respectively. These liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits are included in “Other Tax Liabilities”.

The Company files income tax returns, including returns for its subsidiaries, with federal, state, local and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to examination for the years before 2006. Currently, the Company is under audit in the Philippines and Virginia for certain tax periods ending December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006.

8. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Incentive Plans

The Company has historically granted equity awards to directors and employees under two separate equity plans.

The Company’s 2005 Stock Option Plan (the “2005 Plan”) authorized the Company to grant options to purchase up to 6,310,000 shares of common stock to directors and employees. Option grants under the 2005 Plan ceased upon the approval of the Company’s 2007 Stock Incentive and Award Plan (the “2007 Plan”).

In April 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors and shareholders approved the 2007 Plan, which allowed the Company to grant up to 1,840,000 new stock incentive awards or options, including incentive and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, dividend equivalent rights, performance units, performance shares, performance-based restricted stock, share awards, phantom stock and cash incentive awards. The aggregate number of shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to the 2007 Plan increases automatically each January 1 in an amount equal to 3% of the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding on December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year, unless otherwise reduced by the Board of Directors. In addition, in August 2010, the Company’s board of directors and shareholders approved the amendment and restatement of the 2007 Plan to, among other things, increase the number of shares reserved and available for issuance under the 2007 Plan by 1,140,000 shares. Grants issued under the 2007 Plan may be from either authorized but unissued shares or issued shares from equity awards which have been forfeited or withheld by the Company upon vesting for payment of the employee’s tax withholding obligations and returned to the plan as shares available for future issuance.

Stock Options

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, options to purchase 310,000 shares of common stock were granted, with a weighted average grant date fair value of $4.50 as determined under the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, options were exercised at an aggregate intrinsic value of $111,000. The intrinsic value for stock options exercised is calculated as the difference between the market value on the date of exercise and the exercise price of the shares. The stock options exercised during the period were issued from previously authorized common stock.

     6.1        6.2   

Stock option compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2011, compensation cost related to unvested stock options not yet recognized in the income statement was $5.4 million and is expected to be recognized over an average period of 1.8 years.

Restricted Stock

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company issued 857,000 shares of restricted stock at a weighted average grant date fair value of $7.30. The grant date fair value is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

Restricted stock awards are considered outstanding at the time of grant as the shares are issued and the stockholders are entitled to voting rights. Dividend payments are deferred until the requisite service period has lapsed; additionally, any deferred dividends will be forfeited if the award shares are forfeited by the grantee. Unvested restricted stock awards are not considered outstanding in the computation of basic earnings per share. The Company’s credit agreement and shareholder’s agreement with New Mountain Capital restricts the payment of dividends.

Restricted stock compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $2.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2011, compensation cost related to unvested shares not yet recognized in the income statement was $20.5 million and is expected to be recognized over an average period of 3.15 years.

Upon each vesting of the restricted stock awards, employees are subject to minimum tax withholding obligations. The 2007 Plan allows the Company, at the employee’s election, to withhold a sufficient number of shares due to the employee to satisfy the employee’s minimum tax withholding obligations. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company withheld 140,647 shares of common stock at a value of approximately $1.0 million. Pursuant to the terms of the 2007 Plan, the shares withheld were returned to the 2007 Plan reserve for future issuance and, accordingly, the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock and additional paid-in capital were reduced to reflect this adjustment.

Employee Stock Purchase Program

In April 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the ESPP to provide eligible employees an opportunity to purchase up to 750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock through accumulated payroll deductions. In February 2010, the number of shares that employees could purchase under the ESPP was increased to 1,500,000 in the aggregate. Employees may contribute to the plan during six-month offering periods that begin on March 1 and September 1 of each year. The per share price of common stock purchased pursuant to the ESPP is equal to 90% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on (i) the first day of an offering period, or (ii) the date of purchase (i.e. the last day of the offering period), whichever is lower.

ESPP compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $51,000 and $62,000, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, a total of 54,596 shares were issued under the ESPP and, as of March 31, 2011, there were 603,530 shares available under the ESPP.

9. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

New Mountain Capital, L.L.C. is entitled to receive transaction fees equal to 2% of the transaction value of each significant transaction directly or indirectly involving the Company or any of its controlled affiliates, including, but not limited to, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, or other similar transactions, debt, equity or other financing transactions, public or private offerings of the Company’s securities and joint ventures, partnerships and minority investments. Transaction fees are payable upon the consummation of a significant transaction. No fee is payable for a transaction with a value of less than $25.0 million. There were no related party transactions during the three months ended March 31, 2011 or 2010. In connection with the Company’s acquisition of WMG, New Mountain Capital, L.L.C. has agreed to waive any transaction fee payable for this transaction.

2011 Restructuring Activity

During the first quarter of 2011, the Company initiated a plan to restructure certain of its operations to realign the cost structure and resources and to take advantage of operational efficiencies following the recent acquisitions. The total estimated restructuring costs associated with the plan are estimated to range from $7.5 million to $8.5 million consisting primarily of employee severance expenses and facilities obligations. The restructuring costs will be recorded to the restructuring expenses. As a result of this restructuring, the Company recorded a restructuring charge in the first quarter of 2011of $3.2 million for severance and benefits costs for the reduction in headcount of approximately 60 employees. As of March 31, 2011, the Company has a remaining severance and benefits liability of $2.3 million, which is expected to be fully paid in the first quarter of 2012. This amount is reflected in “Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses” in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. We expect to incur the majority of the approximately $4.8 million remaining estimated expenses pursuant to this restructuring plan through the remaining part of 2011. Any changes to the estimate of executing this restructuring plan will be reflected in our future results of operations.

2009 and 2010 Restructuring Activities

Severance and benefits

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company implemented a restructuring plan to eliminate certain positions in order to realign the cost structure and to allow for increased investment in other areas. As a result of this restructuring, the Company recorded a restructuring charge in the first quarter of 2010 of $936,000 for severance and benefits costs for the reduction in headcount of approximately 25 employees. The Company did not incur a restructuring charge for severance and benefits for the remainder of the year; however, adjustments were made to previously recorded charges during 2010. As of December 31, 2010, the severance and benefits liability recorded for the 2010 restructuring activity has been fully paid.

Facilities

As part of the Company’s continued effort to manage operating costs, a restructuring charge of $97,000 was recorded in the first quarter of 2010 for the closure of an office location with adjustments made to this amount in the second quarter of 2010. This amount was fully paid in the second quarter of 2010.

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of Maconomy, the Company consolidated duplicate office facilities into one location. The Company ceased using the duplicate facility in October 2010. As a result of these actions, a restructuring charge was recorded for approximately $740,000 in the fourth quarter of 2010 which included an early lease termination charge and a provision to write-down leasehold improvements and furniture and equipment.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company has a remaining facility liability for the 2009 and 2010 restructuring activity of $23,000 and $438,000, respectively, which is expected to be paid over the next two years. This amount is reflected as “Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses” of $305,000 and “Other Long-Term Liabilities” of $156,000 in the consolidated balance sheet.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved in claims and legal proceedings arising from normal business operations. The Company does not expect these matters, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

At March 31, 2011, the Company was contingently liable under open standby letters of credit and bank guarantees issued under the New Credit Agreement by the Company’s banks in favor of third parties. These letters of credit and bank guarantees primarily relate to real estate lease obligations and totaled $805,000 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. These instruments had not been drawn on by third parties at March 31, 2011 or December 31, 2010.

Guarantees

The Company provides limited indemnification to customers against intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties arising from the use of the Company’s software products. Estimated losses for such indemnifications are evaluated under ASC 450, Contingencies, as interpreted by ASC 460, Guarantees. The Company does not believe that it currently has any material financial exposure with respect to the indemnification provided to customers. However, due to the lack of indemnification claims from customers, the Company cannot estimate the fair value nor determine the total nominal amount of the indemnifications, if any.

The Company has secured copyright registrations for its own software products with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and with applicable European trademark offices. The Company is provided intellectual property infringement indemnification from its third-party partners whose technology may be embedded or otherwise bundled with the Company’s software products. Therefore, the Company considers the probability of an unfavorable outcome in an intellectual property infringement case relatively low. The Company has not encountered material costs as a result of such obligations and has not accrued any liabilities related to such indemnifications.

Product Warranty

The Company’s standard software license agreement includes a warranty provision for software products. The Company generally warrants for a period of up to one year after delivery that the software shall operate substantially as stated in the then current documentation provided that the software is used in a supported computer system. The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties based on specific warranty claims, provided that it is probable that a liability exists and provided the amount can be reasonably estimated. To date, the Company has not had any material costs associated with these warranties.

12. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company operates as one reportable segment as the Company’s principal business activity relates to selling project-based software and related solutions and implementations and support services. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the performance of the Company as one unit based upon consolidated revenue and operating costs.

The Company’s products and services are sold primarily in the United States, but also included sales through direct and indirect sales channels outside the United States, primarily in Canada, South Africa, the United Kingdom, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, France and Australia.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, approximately 33% and 9%, respectively, of the Company’s license revenues were generated from sales outside of the United States. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, approximately 21% and 8%, respectively, of the Company’s total revenues were generated from sales outside of the United States.

No country outside of the United States accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had $71.6 million and $71.0 million, respectively, of long-lived assets held outside of the United States.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In April 2011, the Company made a voluntary prepayment of $15.0 million on the New Credit Agreement. The prepayment was applied first against the scheduled debt payments through March 2012, and second, ratably against the remaining scheduled debt payments in the amortization schedule.

Company Overview

We are a leading provider of enterprise software and information solutions designed and developed specifically for project-focused organizations, including professional services firms, government contractors and government agencies. More than 14,000 organizations and 1.8 million users in approximately 80 countries around the world rely on Deltek solutions to research and identify opportunities, win new business, optimize resources, streamline operations, and deliver profitable projects. Using Deltek solutions, our customers know more and do more.

In July 2010, we acquired Maconomy A/S (“Maconomy”), an international provider of software solutions to professional services firms. In January 2011, Maconomy was renamed Deltek Danmark A/S.

In October 2010, we acquired INPUT, Inc. (“INPUT”), which enables companies to identify and develop new business opportunities with federal, state and local governments and other public sector organizations.

In November 2010, we extended and expanded our existing credit facility. The extended credit facility provides for $230 million in aggregate borrowings, consisting of $200 million in term loans maturing in November 2016 and a $30 million revolving credit facility maturing in 2015.

In March 2011, we acquired The Washington Management Group, Inc. (“WMG”), and its FedSources (“FSI”) and FedSources Consulting (“FSI Consulting”) businesses. WMG offers comprehensive GSA schedule consulting, and FSI and FSI Consulting provide the market intelligence necessary to identify, qualify, and win government business.

Our revenue is generated from sales of software licenses and related software maintenance and support, information solutions, professional services to assist customers with the implementation of our products, as well as education and training. Our continued growth depends, in part, on our ability to generate revenue from new customers and to continue to expand our presence by selling new products and solutions within our existing installed base of customers.

In our management decision making, we continuously balance our need to achieve short-term financial and operational goals with the equally critical need to continuously invest in our products, services, solutions and infrastructure to ensure our future success. In making decisions around spending levels in our various functional organizations, we consider many factors, including:

 

23


Table of Contents
   

Our ability to expand our presence and penetration of existing markets;

 

   

The extent to which we can sell new products, services and solutions to existing customers and sell upgrades to applications from legacy products in our current portfolio;

 

   

Our success in selling our products, services and solutions through our partner network;

 

   

Our ability to expand our presence in new horizontal and vertical markets and broaden our reach geographically; and

 

   

Our ability to pursue, acquire and successfully integrate companies.

We have acquired companies to broaden the products, services and solutions we offer, expand our customer base and expand into new geographies. The products and solutions of the acquired companies provide our customers with core functionality that complements our own established products.

In evaluating our financial condition and operating performance, we consider a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the following:

 

   

The growth rates of the individual components of our revenues (licenses, subscriptions, support and services) relative to recent historical trends and the growth rate of the overall market as reported or predicted by industry analysts;

 

   

The margins of our business relative to recent historical trends;

 

   

Our operating expenses and income from operations;

 

   

Our cash flow from operations;

 

   

The long-term success of our development efforts;

 

   

Our ability to successfully penetrate new markets;

 

   

Our ability to successfully integrate acquired companies and achieve anticipated synergies;

 

   

Our win rate against our competitors; and

 

   

Our long-term customer retention rates.

Each of the factors may be evaluated individually or collectively by our senior management team in evaluating our performance as we balance our short-term quarterly objectives and our longer-term strategic goals and objectives.

Our license revenue and total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 increased by $0.6 million and $16.2 million, respectively, to $14.6 million and $80.0 million, as compared to $14.0 million and $63.8 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase in license revenue was attributable to our professional services customers, offset by decreases attributable to our government contracting customers whose businesses were likely affected by continued delays and uncertainty in the approval of the Federal Government budget. We believe the increase in total revenue reflects the strength and diversity of our solutions portfolio, our strong competitive position, continuing confidence among our customers despite the economic uncertainty and the positive market impact of our recent acquisitions.

In the first quarter of 2011, we recorded a net operating loss of $7.1 million as compared to net operating income of $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This difference was primarily attributable to costs and expenses we incurred in connection with our recent acquisition, integration and restructuring activities. We expect these costs and expenses to decline over the remainder of 2011. We believe that the products and solutions we acquired, the new solutions we offer and our expanded licensing models have given us a more compelling platform for expanding our business in a challenging economic environment.

We believe that the continuing scrutiny and visibility of government contracting spending and the need to ensure that government projects are successfully completed on time and on budget are important factors driving many of our customers to use our earned value management and project scheduling applications across large segments of their organizations. Moreover, we believe that by combining INPUT’s and FedSource’s opportunity intelligence and market analysis with our project management, financial management and CRM solutions, we are now the only company in the industry that can deliver solutions across the broad spectrum of government contracting requirements and all facets of our customers’ businesses. As a result, we expect our Costpoint, GCS Premier and enterprise project management (“EPM”) products to continue to account for a significant percentage of our overall software license fee revenue despite the continuing uncertainty surrounding the U.S. Federal Government budget and potential reductions in overall government spending, which may impact revenue attributable to our government contracting customers.

At the same time, we expect our professional services solutions to account for a larger percentage of our overall license fee revenue as compared to recent periods, as has been the case since our acquisition of Maconomy. While the timing and extent of any economic recovery among professional services firms remains uncertain, we expect that our acquisition of Maconomy will enable our continued expansion into other parts of the broader professional services marketplace, both domestically and internationally.

Table of Contents

In addition, we believe that our acquisition of Maconomy will positively impact our consulting services revenue over the course of 2011, though continued issues in the government contracting and professional services markets may constrain our consulting services revenue.

In recent years, revenue from maintenance services has increased as a percentage of our total revenue. We expect revenue from maintenance services to remain a significant source of our total revenue as a result of additional sales of software licenses in the future, our high maintenance retention rates and the positive impact of our acquisition of Maconomy on software license and maintenance revenues. We expect that renewals of maintenance services in 2011, including with respect to our acquisition of Maconomy, will result in an increase in maintenance revenue as compared to 2010.

In the first quarter of 2011, we initiated a plan to restructure our operations in certain areas to realign the cost structure and resources and to take advantage of operational efficiencies following the recent acquisitions. We anticipate restructuring charges in 2011 in connection with this plan and as we continue to integrate our business and allow for increased investment in key strategic objectives. We have proactively managed, and will continue to proactively manage, our business to control operating expenses and realign resources in a way that will allow us to maximize near-term opportunities while maintaining the flexibility needed to achieve our longer-term strategic goals.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

In presenting our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. Some of the estimates and assumptions we are required to make relate to matters that are inherently uncertain as they pertain to future events. We base these estimates and assumptions on historical experience or on various other factors that we believe to be reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, we reconsider and evaluate our estimates and assumptions. Our future estimates may change if the underlying assumptions change. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.

For further information on our critical and other significant accounting policies, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. We believe that the following critical accounting policies involve our more significant judgments, assumptions and estimates and, therefore, could have the greatest potential impact on our consolidated financial statements:

 

   

Revenue Recognition;

 

   

Stock-Based Compensation;

 

   

Income Taxes;

 

   

Allowances for Doubtful Accounts Receivable;

 

   

Valuation of Purchased Goodwill, Intangible Assets and Acquired Deferred Revenue; and

 

   

Impairment of Identifiable Intangible and Other Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill.

Software License Fees

Our software applications are generally licensed to end-user customers under perpetual license agreements. We sell our software applications to end-user customers mainly through our direct sales force, as well as indirectly through our network of alliance partners and resellers. The timing of the sales cycle for our products varies in length based upon a variety of factors, including the size of the customer, the product being sold and whether the customer is a new or existing customer. While price is an important consideration, we primarily compete on product features, functionality and the needs of our customers within our served markets.

Software revenues increased $0.6 million, or 4%, to $14.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. In 2011, we recognized revenue of $3.6 million from Maconomy and Vision software license fees. This was offset by lower software license fee revenues from our Costpoint, GCS Premier and EPM products of $3.0 million compared to the prior year.

We believe the continued scrutiny and visibility of government contract spending has impacted our license fee revenue because certain of our government contracting customers have delayed their purchasing decisions amid the uncertainty surrounding the Federal budget and potential Federal spending reductions. While we expect continued demand for our products, we nonetheless may not experience the same level of demand during the remainder of 2011 when compared to historical periods for our software solutions.

Subscription and Recurring Revenues

Our subscription and recurring revenues are comprised of fees derived from arrangements in which the Company’s customers subscribe to information, products and services. The revenue stream for the subscription and recurring revenues began in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Subscription and recurring revenues were $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. These revenues were primarily attributable to the products and services we added to our portfolio with the acquisition of INPUT and software solutions sold on a subscription or term basis. We believe that our subscription and recurring revenues associated with our acquisitions of INPUT and WMG as well as product solutions sold on a subscription basis, will account for a significant component of our total revenue for the remainder of 2011.

Maintenance and Support Services

Our maintenance and support revenues are comprised of fees derived from new maintenance contracts associated with new software license sales and annual renewals of existing maintenance contracts. These contracts typically allow our customers to obtain online, telephone and internet-based support, as well as unspecified periodic upgrades or enhancements, bug fixes and phone support for perpetual software licenses.

Maintenance revenues increased $5.6 million, or 17%, to $38.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. Maintenance revenues from our Costpoint, GCS Premier, and EPM products collectively increased $1.6 million year over year as a result of strong renewals and a higher installed base. In addition, we recognized maintenance revenues of $3.8 million in 2011 from Maconomy and Vision maintenance contracts. The sales allowance decreased slightly by $0.2 million. We expect that maintenance revenues will continue to be a significant source of revenue for the remainder of 2011 given our high maintenance retention rate and our stable base of customers.

Consulting and Other Revenues

Our consulting services revenues are generated from software implementation and related project management and data conversions, as well as training, education and other consulting services associated with our software applications. These services have typically been provided on a time-and-materials basis. Our other revenues consist primarily of fees collected for our annual user conference, which is held in the second quarter of the year.

Consulting services and other revenues increased $3.0 million, or 17%, to $20.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to three months ended March 31, 2010. Our software implementation consulting services revenue increased $3.0 million due to the additional sales of consulting services to Maconomy customers in the first quarter.

We expect continued demand in 2011 for consulting services from customers due to additional purchases of our applications and the expansion of their use of our software and solutions.

Cost of Software License Fees

Our cost of software license fees consists of third-party software royalties, costs of product fulfillment, amortization of acquired technology and amortization of capitalized software.

Cost of software license fees increased by $0.8 million, or 84%, to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 which was primarily attributed to the amortization of purchased intangible assets.

Cost of Subscription and Recurring Revenues

Our cost of subscription and recurring revenues are comprised of compensation expenses, and facility and other expenses incurred in providing subscription services, as well as the amortization of acquired purchased intangible assets.

Cost of subscription and recurring revenues is $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $0.1 million to the three months ended March 31, 2010. The cost of subscription and recurring revenues is comprised of $2.7 million for labor and related benefits, $0.8 million for amortization of purchased intangible assets, $0.4 million for facility expenses and $0.1 million for other expenses.

Cost of Maintenance and Support Services

Our cost of maintenance and support services is primarily comprised of compensation expenses and third-party contractor expenses, as well as facilities and other expenses incurred in providing support to our customers.

Cost of maintenance and support services increased $0.9 million, or 14%, to $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. This increase was attributed to increases in labor and related benefits of $0.6 million and facility expenses of $0.3 million.

Cost of Consulting Services and Other Revenues

Our cost of consulting services is comprised of the compensation expenses for services-related employees as well as third-party contractor expenses, travel and reimbursable expenses and classroom rentals. Cost of consulting services also includes an allocation of our facilities and other costs incurred for providing implementation, training and other consulting services to our customers. Our cost of other revenues primarily includes costs associated with our annual user conference.

Cost of consulting services and other revenues increased $3.1 million, or 22%, to $17.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 which was primarily attributed to labor and related benefits due to increased headcount.

Research and Development

Our product development expenses consist primarily of compensation expenses, third-party contractor expenses, and other expenses associated with the design, development and testing of our software applications.

Research and development expenses increased by $6.5 million, or 58%, to $17.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. The principal drivers of the increase were higher labor costs and related benefits of $5.1 million resulting primarily from increased headcount attributable to the Maconomy and INPUT acquisitions, third-party contractor expenses of $0.6 million, facility expenses of $0.6 million and travel expenses of $0.2 million.

Sales and Marketing

Our sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs, commissions paid to our sales team and the cost of marketing programs (including our demand generation efforts, advertising, events, marketing and corporate communications, field marketing and product marketing), and other expenses associated with our sales and marketing activities. Sales and marketing expenses also include amortization expense for acquired intangible assets associated with customer relationships.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $11.2 million, or 101%, to $22.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was due to increases in labor and related benefits of $6.9 million primarily from an increase in headcount attributable to the Maconomy and INPUT acquisitions, amortization of purchased intangibles of $1.7 million, facility expenses of $1.2 million, travel of $0.7 million, select marketing programs of $0.4 million and professional services fees of $0.3 million.

General and Administrative

Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for general corporate functions, including executive, finance, accounting, legal and human resources. General and administrative costs also include New Mountain Capital advisory fees, insurance premiums, third-party legal fees, other professional services fees, facilities and other expenses associated with our administrative activities which include acquisition-related costs.

General and administrative expenses increased by $3.9 million, or 40%, to $13.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase resulted from increases in professional services fees of $1.5 million, facility expenses of $1.3 million, labor and related benefits of $0.6 million and other expenses of $0.5 million.

Restructuring Charge

During the three month period ended March 31, 2011, we initiated a plan to restructure our operations in certain areas to realign the cost structure and resources and to take advantage of operational efficiencies following the recent acquisitions. The total estimated restructuring costs associated with the plan are estimated to range from $7.5 million to $8.5 million consisting primarily of employee severance expenses and facilities obligations. As a result of this restructuring, we recorded a restructuring charge in the first quarter of 2011of $3.2 million for severance and benefits costs for the reduction in headcount of approximately 60 employees. We expect to incur the majority of the approximately $4.8 million remaining estimated expenses pursuant to this restructuring plan through the remaining part of 2011. Any changes to the estimate of executing this restructuring plan will be reflected in our future results of operations. See Item 1 – Financial Statements (unaudited) – Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) – Note 10, Restructuring Charge.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we recorded a restructuring charge of approximately $1.0 million in an effort to realign our cost structure and to close an office location. The charge included $0.9 million for severance and benefit costs for approximately 25 employees and $0.1 million for facilities related expenses associated with the closure of one office location.

Interest Income

Interest income reflects interest earned on our invested cash balances. Interest income remained relatively flat during the three months ended March 31, 2011, when compared with the comparable periods in 2010.

Interest expense increased $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. This was primarily attributed to an increase in the average debt outstanding of approximately $30 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increased debt is attributed to the New Credit Agreement in November 2010. The effective interest rate decreased to 6.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 6.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 decreased $6.1 million to a $3.7 million benefit compared to $2.4 million of expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010. As a percentage of pre-tax income, income tax expense was 36.3% and 36.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The income tax expense for 2011 is lower than the income tax expense for 2010 due primarily to lower pre-tax income.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company established an additional liability of approximately $0.2 million associated with certain deductible expenses, tax credits and associated interest on prior period ASC 740-10 adjustments.

Credit Agreement

The Company has maintained a credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders led by Credit Suisse (the “Credit Agreement”) since 2005. In August 2009, the Company amended the Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”). As a result of the amendment, the Company extended the maturity of $129.4 million of term loans to April 22, 2013. In addition, the expiration of $22.5 million of the Company’s $30.0 million revolving credit facility (no amounts were outstanding) was also extended to April 22, 2013.

In November 2010, we amended and extended the Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”), providing for $230.0 million in aggregate borrowings, consisting of $200 million in secured term loans maturing in November 2016 and a $30.0 million secured revolving credit facility maturing in November 2015. The new revolving credit facility was undrawn at closing. All prior amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement (approximately $146.8 million) were prepaid in full out of proceeds from the new term loans. The remaining proceeds of $48.1 million, less debt issuance costs of approximately $5.1 million, are used for general corporate purposes. The amendment and extension included an original issuance debt discount of 1%, or $2.0 million, which, along with the deferred debt issuance costs, will be amortized over the term of the loan using the effective interest method. The original issue debt discount was included in the $5.1 million of debt issuance costs noted above.

Under the New Credit Agreement for both the term loans and the revolving credit facility, we pay an interest rate equal to the British Banker’s Association Interest Settlement Rates for dollar deposits (the “LIBO rate”) plus 4.00%, with a LIBO rate floor of 1.50%. Interest rates prior to the New Credit Agreement were either 2.25% or 4.25% above the LIBO rate and contained a LIBO rate floor of 2.00% and the rate for the revolving credit facility was 2.50% or 1.50%, depending on the type of borrowing.

The Company pays a fee equal to 0.75% of the undrawn portion on the revolving credit facility that expires in November 2015. The New Credit Agreement requires the Company to make principal payments of $0.5 million per quarter through September 2016, with the remaining balance due in November 2016.

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the outstanding principal amount of the term loans was $199.0 million and $199.5 million, respectively, excluding the reduction of the unamortized debt discount of $1.9 million, and there were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility, except for letters of credit totaling less than $1.0 million.

All loans under the New Credit Agreement are collateralized by substantially all of our assets (including our domestic subsidiaries’ assets) and require us to comply with certain financial covenants. There were no material modifications to our debt

covenants under the New Credit Agreement, except that the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant was replaced by a maximum capital expenditures covenant. Other covenants require us to maintain defined minimum levels of interest coverage and provide for a limitation on our leverage ratio.

The New Credit Agreement also requires us to comply with non-financial covenants that restrict or limit certain corporate activities by us and our subsidiaries, including our ability to incur additional indebtedness, guarantee obligations, or create liens on our assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, engage in mergers or consolidations, or pay cash dividends.

Based on our current and expected performance, we believe we will continue to satisfy the financial covenants of the New Credit Agreement for the foreseeable future.

As of March 31, 2011, we were in compliance with all covenants under the New Credit Agreement.

The New Credit Agreement requires mandatory prepayments of the term loans from our annual excess cash flow, and from the net proceeds of certain asset sales or equity issuances. During the first quarter of 2011, we made a scheduled principal payment of $0.5 million. We did not make an excess cash flow payment in the first quarter of 2011, under the New Credit Agreement, due to the permitted acquisitions that occurred during 2010. The New Credit Agreement also requires us to prepay a portion of the term loans from the net proceeds of certain equity issuances so that our leverage ratio (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) is less than 3.00, if on or before December 31, 2011, or 2.75, if anytime thereafter. In April 2011, the Company made a voluntary prepayment of $15.0 million on the New Credit Agreement.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview of Liquidity

Our primary operating cash requirements include the payment of salaries, incentive compensation and related benefits, and other headcount-related costs as well as the costs of office facilities and information technology systems. We fund these requirements through cash collections from our customers for the purchase of our software, subscriptions, consulting services and maintenance services. Amounts due from customers for software license, subscriptions and maintenance services are generally billed in advance of the contract period.

The cost of our acquisitions has been financed with available cash flow and, to the extent necessary, term loan and revolving credit facility borrowings.

We utilize our revolving credit facility for the additional purpose of providing the required guarantee related to certain letters of credit for our real estate leases. At March 31, 2011, the total amount of letters of credit guaranteed under the revolving credit facility was $0.8 million. As a result, available borrowings on the revolving credit facility at March 31, 2011 were $29.2 million.

Historically, our cash flows have been subject to variability from year-to-year, primarily as a result of one-time or infrequent events. These events have included acquisitions and the repayment of indebtedness. We expect that our future growth will continue to require additional working capital. Although such future working capital requirements are difficult to forecast based on our current estimates of revenues and expenses, we believe that anticipated cash flows from operations and available sources of funds (including available borrowings under our revolving credit facility) will provide sufficient liquidity for us to fund our business and meet our obligations for the next twelve months. In addition, our New Credit Agreement provides for greater financial flexibility by extending our debt repayment requirements over a longer term.

Table of Contents

We also believe that our aggregate cash balance of $69.9 million as of March 31, 2011, coupled with anticipated cash flows from operations and available sources of funds (including available borrowings under our revolving credit facility), will be sufficient to cover the payments due over the near term under the New Credit Agreement.

In April 2011, the Company made a voluntary prepayment of $15.0 million on the New Credit Agreement. The prepayment was applied first against the scheduled debt payments through March 2012, and, second, ratably against the remaining scheduled debt payments in the amortization schedule.

In the future, however, we may require additional liquidity to fund our operations, strategic investments and acquisitions, and debt repayment obligations, which could entail raising additional funds or modifying the terms of our New Credit Agreement.

Analysis of Cash Flows

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we generated cash from operating activities of $20.6 million compared to $19.7 million during the comparable period for 2010. The increase of $0.9 million was primarily due to an increase in deferred revenues of $10.9 million primarily attributed to annual billings in the first quarter attributed to the acquisition of Maconomy offset by a decrease in net income of $10.7 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $27.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $6.6 million used during the comparable period of 2010. Our use of cash in investing activities in the first three months of 2011 was primarily for the acquisition of WMG for $25.7 million and the purchase of property and equipment of $1.9 million. Our use of cash in investing activities in the first three months of 2010 was for the purchase of the assets of S.I.R.A., Inc. for $6.1 million and the purchase of property and equipment of $0.5 million.

Net cash used in financing activities was $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, which was primarily related to $0.5 million in debt repayments and $1.1 million for shares withheld for minimum tax withholdings on vested restricted stock. This was offset by proceeds for stock option exercises, and the related tax benefit on stock awards, as well as the issuance of stock under our employee stock purchase plan of $0.7 million.

Net cash used in financing activities was $26.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, which primarily related to $27.0 million in debt repayments and $0.7 million for shares withheld for minimum tax withholdings on restricted stock. This was offset from proceeds for the issuance of stock under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan as well as stock option exercises of $1.3 million.

Impact of Seasonality

Fluctuations in our quarterly software license fee revenues historically reflect, in part, seasonal fluctuations driven by our customers’ procurement cycles for enterprise software and other factors. These factors historically yield a peak in software license fee revenue in the fourth quarter due to increased spending by our customers during that time. However, as a result of the current economic environment, the seasonality of our business was impacted by our customers’ views of their economic outlook. Therefore, past seasonality may not be indicative of current or future seasonality.

Our consulting services revenues are impacted by software license sales, the availability of consulting resources to work on customer implementations, and the adequacy of our contracting activity to maintain full utilization of available resources. As a result, services revenues are much less subject to seasonal fluctuations.

Our maintenance and subscription revenues are not subject to significant seasonal fluctuations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2011, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Indemnification

We provide limited indemnification to our customers against intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties arising from the use of our software products. Due to the established nature of our primary software products and the lack of intellectual property infringement claims in the past, we cannot estimate the fair value nor determine the total nominal amount of the indemnification, if any. Estimated losses for such indemnification are evaluated under ASC 450, Contingencies, as interpreted by ASC 460, Guarantees. We have secured copyright and trademark registrations for our software products with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, and we have intellectual property infringement indemnification from our third-party partners whose technology may be embedded or otherwise bundled with our software products. We generally consider the probability of an unfavorable outcome in an intellectual property infringement case to be relatively low. We have not encountered material costs as a result of such obligations and have not accrued any liabilities related to such indemnifications.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures concerning transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy and a roll forward of the activity of assets and liabilities measured in Level 3 of the hierarchy. In addition, ASU 2010-06 clarifies existing disclosure requirements to require fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities and disclosure regarding the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure Level 2 or Level 3 fair value measurements on a recurring and nonrecurring basis. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009 except for the roll forward of activity for Level 3 fair value measurements, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, and the FASB issued ASU 2009-14, Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements, on revenue recognition that became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted. The adoption of these standards did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. ASU 2010-28 addresses how to apply Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test when a reporting unit has a zero or negative carrying amount. ASU 2010-28 requires for those reporting units with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform Step 2 of the impairment test if qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. ASU 2010-28 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-28 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our outstanding debt and cash and cash equivalents consisting primarily of funds held in money market accounts on a short-term basis with no withdrawal restrictions. At March 31, 2011, we had $69.9 million in cash and cash equivalents. Our interest expense associated with our term loans and revolving credit facility can vary with market rates. As of March 31, 2011, we had approximately $199.0 million of the principal amount in debt outstanding, which was effectively set at a fixed rate at March 31, 2011, due to the LIBO rate floor established of 1.5% in the New Credit Agreement and the LIBO rate at March 31, 2011 being below the established floor. However, an increase in the LIBO rate above the LIBO rate floor subsequent to March 31, 2011 could cause our fixed rate debt to become variable and our interest expense to vary.

We cannot predict market fluctuations in interest rates and their impact on our possible variable rate debt, or whether fixed-rate long-term debt will be available to us at favorable rates, if at all. Consequently, future results may differ materially from the hypothetical 1% increase discussed above.

Based on the investment interest rate and our cash and cash equivalents balance as of March 31, 2011, a hypothetical 1% decrease in interest rates would have an insignificant impact on our earnings and cash flows on an annual basis. We do not currently use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

The majority of our operations are transacted in U.S. Dollars. However, since a growing portion of our operations consists of activities outside of the United States, we have transactions in other currencies, primarily in the Danish krone, the British pound, the Philippine peso, the Australian dollar, the Swedish krona, the Norwegian kroner and the Euro. As our international operations continue to grow, we may choose to use foreign currency forward and option contracts to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Currently, we do not have any such contracts in place, nor did we have any such contracts during 2010, 2009, or 2008. To date, the foreign currency exchange fluctuations have not had a significant impact on our operating results and cash flows given the scope of our international presence. A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in foreign currency exchange rates from the rates used to translate our foreign operations financial statements would have impacted our net income by less than $0.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011. Our net assets at March 31, 2011 would have been impacted by less than $8.5 million from a hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in the foreign currency exchange rates used to translate our financial position at March 31, 2011.

 

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the

 

33


Table of Contents

Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Our management maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required financial disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in various legal proceedings from time to time that are incidental to the ordinary conduct of our business. Although the outcomes of legal proceedings are inherently difficult to predict, we are not currently involved in any legal proceeding in which the outcome, in our judgment based on information currently available, is likely to have a material adverse effect on our business or financial position.

 

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

Risks Related to Our Business

Our business is exposed to the risk that adverse economic or financial conditions may reduce or defer the demand for project-based enterprise applications software and solutions.

The demand for project-based enterprise applications software and solutions historically has fluctuated based upon a variety of factors, including the business and financial condition of our customers and on economic and financial conditions that affect the key sectors in which our customers operate.

Economic downturns or unfavorable changes in the financial and credit markets in both the United States and broader international markets, including economic recessions, could have an adverse effect on the operations, budgets and overall financial condition of our customers.

As a result, our customers may reduce their overall spending on information technology, purchase fewer of our products or solutions, lengthen sales cycles, or delay, defer or cancel purchases of our products or solutions. Furthermore, our customers may be less able to timely finance or pay for the products which they have purchased or could be forced into a bankruptcy or restructuring process, which could limit our ability to recover amounts owed to us. If any of our customers cease operations or file for bankruptcy protection, our ability to recover amounts owed to us for software license fees, consulting and implementation services or software maintenance may be severely impaired.

In addition, the financial and overall condition of third-party solutions’ providers and resellers of our products and solutions may be affected by adverse conditions in the economy and the financial and credit markets, which may adversely affect the sale of our products or solutions. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, resellers accounted for approximately 11% of our software license fee revenue.

We cannot predict the impact, timing, strength or duration of any economic slowdown or subsequent economic recovery, or of any disruption in the financial and credit markets. If the challenges in the financial and credit markets or the downturn in the economy or the markets in which we operate persist or worsen from present levels, our business, financial condition, cash flow, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Our quarterly and annual operating results fluctuate, and as a result, we may fail to meet or exceed the expectations of securities analysts or investors, and our stock price could decline.

Historically, our operating results have varied from quarter to quarter and from year to year. Consequently, we believe that investors should not view our historical revenue and other operating results as an indicator of our future performance. A number of factors contribute to the variability in our revenue and other operating results, including the following:

 

   

global and domestic economic and financial conditions;

 

34


Table of Contents
   

the number and timing of major customer contract wins, which tend to be unpredictable and which may disproportionately impact our software license fee revenue and operating results;

 

   

the highest concentration of our software license sales is typically in the last month of each quarter resulting in diminished predictability of our quarterly results;

 

   

the higher concentration of our software license sales in the last quarter of each fiscal year, resulting in diminished predictability of our annual results;

 

   

the discretionary nature of our customers’ purchases, varying budget cycles and amounts available to fund purchases resulting in varying demand for our products and services;

 

   

delays or deferrals by customers in the implementation of our products;

 

   

the level of product and price competition;

 

   

the length of our sales cycles;

 

   

the timing of recognition of deferred revenue;

 

   

any significant change in the number of customers renewing or terminating maintenance agreements with us;

 

   

our ability to deliver and market new software enhancements and products;

 

   

announcements of technological innovations by us or our competitors;

 

   

the relative mix of products and services we sell;

 

   

developments with respect to our intellectual property rights or those of our competitors; and

 

   

our ability to attract, train and retain qualified personnel.

As a result of these and other factors, our operating results may fluctuate significantly from period to period and may not meet or exceed the expectations of securities analysts or investors. In that event, the price of our common stock could be adversely affected.

Our expansion of licensing vehicles, including subscription and on-demand pricing for our software and information solutions, could delay the recognition of revenue into subsequent quarters, and our operating results in any particular quarter may not be reflective of our actual performance.

As we expand our business by providing additional licensing and subscription opportunities to our customers, the existing accounting rules may require us to delay the recognition of revenue into subsequent quarters. This could also be the case if, for example:

 

   

the software transactions include both currently deliverable software products and software products that are under development or require other undeliverable elements;

 

   

a particular customer requires services that include significant modifications, customizations or complex interfaces that could delay product delivery or acceptance;

 

   

the software transactions involve customer acceptance criteria;

 

   

there are identified product-related issues, such as known defects;

 

   

we sell subscription offerings in conjunction with perpetual licenses and we are not able to separate recognition of the software license fee revenue and must therefore recognize revenue ratably over the subscription term;

 

   

the software transactions involve payment terms that are longer than our standard payment terms, fees that depend upon future contingencies or include fixed-price deliverable elements; or

 

   

under the applicable accounting requirements, we are unable to separate recognition of software license fee revenue from maintenance or other services-related revenue, thereby requiring us to defer software license fee revenue recognition until the services are provided.

Deferral of software license fee revenue may result in significant timing differences between the completion of a sale and the actual recognition of the revenue related to that sale. In addition we generally recognize commission and other sales-related expenses associated with sales at the time they are incurred. As a result, our operating results in any particular quarter may not be reflective of our actual performance.

If we are unable to effectively respond to organizational challenges as our business evolves, our revenues, profitability and business reputation could be materially adversely affected.

Between 2007 and March 31, 2011 our worldwide headcount increased from more than 1,200 employees at the end of 2007 to more than 1,700 employees worldwide at March 31, 2011, as a result of our acquisitions of Maconomy, INPUT and WMG.

Continuing to expand and develop our business will place greater demands on our management, financial and accounting systems, information technology systems and other components of our infrastructure. To meet these demands, we continue to invest in enhanced or new systems, including enhancements to our accounting, billing and information technology systems. Although we continue to hire, train and retain employees with the specific skills needed to help address these demands, if we fail to adequately address the demands associated with the expansion and development of our business, our profitability and our business reputation could be materially adversely affected.

If we are unsuccessful in entering new market segments or further penetrating our existing market segments, our revenue or revenue growth could be materially adversely affected.

Our future results depend, in part, on our ability to successfully penetrate new markets, as well as to expand further into our existing markets. In order to grow our business, we may expand to other project-focused markets in which we may have less experience. Expanding into new markets requires both considerable investment and coordination of technical, support, sales, marketing and financial resources.

In July 2010, we completed our acquisition of Maconomy, a multi-national provider of software solutions to professional services firms, and as a result of this acquisition expanded our operations into Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden and Belgium expanded our existing operations both in the United Kingdom and the U.S.

In October 2010, we completed our acquisition of INPUT, which added industry-leading opportunity intelligence and business development capabilities to our comprehensive portfolio of government contracting solutions thereby expanding our network of government contractor customers.

In March 2011, we completed our acquisition of The Washington Management Group, Inc. (“WMG”), and its FedSources (“FSI”) and FedSources Consulting (“FSI Consulting”) subsidiaries. WMG offers GSA schedule consulting, and FSI and FSI Consulting provide the expertise and information solutions designed to help identify, qualify, and win government business.

While we continually add functionality to our products and solutions and add additional solutions to our portfolio of solutions through acquisitions to address the specific needs of both existing customers and new customers, we may be unsuccessful in developing appropriate or complete products, devoting sufficient resources, integrating acquired products and solutions with our existing portfolio or pursuing effective strategies for product development and marketing.

Our current or future products, solutions and services may not appeal to potential customers in new or existing markets. If we are unable to execute upon this element of our business strategy and expand into new markets or maintain and increase our market share in our existing markets, our revenue or revenue growth may be materially adversely affected.

If our existing customers do not buy additional software or information solutions or services from us, our revenue and revenue growth could be materially adversely affected.

Our business model depends, in part, on the success of our efforts to maintain and increase sales to our existing customers. We have typically generated significant additional revenues from our installed customer base through the sale of additional new licenses or solutions, add-on applications, expansion of existing implementations and professional and maintenance services. We may be unsuccessful in maintaining or increasing sales to our existing customers for any number of reasons, including the failure of our customers to increase the size of their operations, our inability to deploy new applications and features for our existing products and solutions, or to introduce new products, solutions and services that are responsive to the business needs of our customers. If we fail to generate additional business from our customers, our revenue and profitability could be materially adversely affected.

If we do not successfully address the potential risks associated with our current or future global operations, we could experience increased costs or our operating results could be materially adversely affected.

As of March 31, 2011, we had customers in approximately 80 countries and we have facilities in Denmark, the Philippines, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, Belgium and Australia.

Doing business internationally may involve additional potential risks and challenges, including:

 

   

managing international operations, including a global workforce, multiple languages for communication and diverse cultural conventions;

 

   

conforming our products to local business practices or standards, including developing multi-lingual compatible software;

 

   

developing brand awareness for our products;

 

   

competing with local and international software vendors;

 

   

disruptions in international communications resulting from damage to, or disruptions of, telecommunications links, gateways, cables or other systems;

 

36


Table of Contents
   

potential difficulties in collecting accounts receivable and longer collection periods in countries where the accounts receivable collections process may be more difficult;

 

   

potentially unstable political and economic conditions in countries in which we do business or maintain development operations;

 

   

potentially higher operating costs resulting from local laws, regulations and market conditions;

 

   

foreign currency controls and fluctuations resulting from intercompany balances or arrangements associated with our international operations;

 

   

reduced protection for intellectual property rights in a number of countries where we do business;

 

   

compliance with frequently changing governmental laws and regulations;

 

   

seasonality in business activity specific to various markets that is different than our recent historical experience;

 

   

potentially longer sales cycles in certain international markets;

 

   

potential restrictions on repatriation of earnings, including changes in the tax treatment of our international operations; and

 

   

potential restrictions on the export of technologies such as data security and encryption.

These risks could increase our costs or adversely affect our operating results.

If we are not successful in expanding our international business, our revenue growth could be materially adversely affected.

We have customers in approximately 80 countries and international markets that accounted for approximately 33% of our total software license fee revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Nonetheless, our ability to accelerate our international expansion will require us to deliver additional product functionality and foreign language translations that are responsive to the needs of the international customers that we target. If we are unable to expand our qualified direct sales force, identify additional strategic alliance partners, or negotiate favorable alliance terms, our international growth may be hampered. Our ability to expand internationally also is dependent on our ability to raise brand recognition for our products and services in international markets and successfully integrate acquired businesses. If we are unable to further our expansion into international markets, or if we are unable to realize the benefits we expect to achieve from our recent acquisition of Maconomy or any future international operation that we acquire, our revenue and profitability could be materially adversely affected. In addition, our planned international expansion will require significant attention from our management as well as additional management and other resources in these markets.

We may be subject to integration and other risks from acquisition activities, which could materially impair our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of any acquisitions.

As part of our business strategy, we have acquired, and intend to continue to acquire, complementary businesses, technologies, product lines or services organizations. In July 2010, we completed our acquisition of Maconomy, an international provider of software solutions to professional services firms and in October 2010, we completed our acquisition of INPUT, which added industry-leading opportunity intelligence and business development capabilities to our comprehensive portfolio of government contracting solutions. In March 2011, we completed the acquisition of WMG, including FSI and FSI Consulting, which added additional opportunity intelligence and business development capabilities to our solutions portfolio. These acquisitions added approximately 600 employees to our existing employee base and expanded our operations into five new countries—Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Belgium and the Netherlands. We may not realize the anticipated strategic or financial benefits of past or potential future acquisitions due to a variety of factors, including the following:

 

   

the potential difficulty in integrating acquired products and technology into our software applications, business strategy and operations;

 

   

the potential inability to achieve the desired revenue or cost synergies and benefits;

 

   

the potential difficulty in coordinating and integrating the sales, marketing, services, support and development activities of the acquired businesses, successfully cross selling products or services and managing the combined organizations;

 

   

the potential difficulty in retaining and motivating key employees of the acquired business, including cultural differences;

 

   

the potential difficulty and cost of establishing and integrating controls, procedures and policies;

 

   

the acquisition may result in unplanned disruptions to our ongoing business and may divert management from day-to-day operations due to a variety of factors, including integration issues;

 

   

the possibility that goodwill or other intangible assets may become impaired and will need to be written off in the future;

 

   

the possibility that purchase or other accounting rules will impact timing or amount of recognized revenue, expenses or our balance sheet with respect to any acquired products or solutions;

 

37


Table of Contents
   

the potential failure of the due diligence process to identify significant issues, including product quality, architecture and development issues or legal and financial contingencies (including ongoing maintenance or service contract concerns); and

 

   

lack of legal protection for the intellectual property we acquire.

If a significant number of our customers fail to renew or otherwise terminate their maintenance services agreements for our products, or if they are successful in renegotiating their agreements with us on terms that are unfavorable to us, our maintenance services revenues and our operating results could be materially harmed.

Our customers contract with us for ongoing product maintenance and support services. Historically, maintenance services revenues have represented a significant portion of our total revenue. Revenues from maintenance and support services constituted approximately 48% and 51% of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Our maintenance and support services are generally billed and paid in advance. A customer may cancel its maintenance services agreement prior to the beginning of the next scheduled period. At the end of a contract term, or at the time a customer has cancellation rights, a customer could seek a modification of its maintenance services agreement terms, including modifications that could result in lower maintenance fees or our providing additional services without associated fee increases.

A customer may also elect to terminate its maintenance services agreement and rely on its own in-house technical staff or other third-party resources, or may replace our software with a competitor’s product. If our maintenance services business declines due to a significant number of contract terminations, or if we are forced to offer pricing or other maintenance terms that are unfavorable to us, our maintenance services revenues and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

If we fail to forecast the timing of our revenues or expenses accurately, our operating results could be materially different than we anticipated.

We use a variety of factors in our forecasting and planning processes, including historical trends, recent customer history, expectations of customer buying decisions, customer implementation schedules and plans, analyses by our sales and service teams, maintenance renewal rates, our assessment of economic or market conditions and many other factors. While these analyses may provide us with some guidance in business planning and expense management, these estimates are inherently imprecise and may not accurately predict the timing of our revenues or expenses. A variation in any or all of these factors, particularly in light of prevailing financial or economic conditions, could cause us to inaccurately forecast our revenues or expenses and could result in expenditures without corresponding revenue. As a result, our revenues and our operating results could be materially lower than anticipated.

To maintain our competitive position, we may be forced to reduce prices or limit price increases, which could result in materially reduced revenue, margins or net income.

We face significant competition across all of our product lines from a variety of sources, including larger multi-national software companies, smaller start-up organizations, point solution application providers, “SaaS” providers, specialized consulting organizations, systems integrators and internal information technology departments of existing or potential customers. Several competitors, such as Oracle and SAP, have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we have.

In addition, some of our competitors have well-established relationships with our current and prospective customers and with major accounting and consulting firms that may prefer to recommend those competitors over us. Our competitors may also seek to influence some customers’ purchase decisions by offering more comprehensive horizontal product portfolios, superior global presence and more sophisticated multi-national product capabilities.

To maintain our competitive position, we may be forced to reduce prices or limit price increases, which could materially reduce our revenue, margins or net income.

Our indebtedness or an inability to borrow additional amounts could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition and prevent us from fulfilling our financial obligations and business objectives.

As of March 31, 2011, we had approximately $199.0 million of outstanding principal amount of the term loans under our existing credit facility at interest rates which are subject to market fluctuation. These term loans mature in November 2016. Our existing credit facility also provides for a $30.0 million revolving credit facility maturing in November 2015. Our indebtedness and related obligations could have important future consequences to us, such as:

 

   

potentially limiting our ability to obtain additional financing or finance our existing debt to fund growth, working capital, capital expenditures or to meet existing debt service or other cash requirements;

 

   

exposing us to the risk of increased interest costs if the underlying interest rates rise significantly;

 

   

potentially limiting our ability to invest operating cash flow in our business due to debt service requirements or other financial covenants; or

 

38


Table of Contents
   

increasing our vulnerability to economic downturns and changing market conditions.

Our ability to meet our existing debt service obligations will depend on many factors, including prevailing financial or economic conditions, our past performance and our financial and operational outlook. In addition, although we recently completed the extension and expansion of our credit facility, our ability to borrow additional funds or refinance our existing debt if desired or deemed necessary in light of then-existing business conditions could also depend on such factors. If we do not have enough cash to satisfy our debt service obligations, we may be required to refinance all or part of our existing debt, modify our debt structure, sell assets or reduce our spending. At any given time, we may not be able to refinance our debt or sell assets on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to do so, our business could be materially adversely affected.

If we are unable to comply with the covenants or restrictions contained in our credit facility, our lenders could declare all amounts outstanding under the credit agreement to be due and payable, which could materially adversely affect our financial condition.

Since 2005, we have maintained a credit facility with a syndicate of lenders led by Credit Suisse. The credit facility is subject to covenants that, among other things, restrict both our and our subsidiaries’ ability to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, incur guarantee obligations, pay dividends, create liens on assets, enter into sale-leaseback transactions, make investments, loans or advances, make acquisitions, engage in mergers or consolidations, change the business conducted by us and engage in certain transactions with affiliates.

Under our credit facility, we are also required to comply with certain financial covenants related to capital expenditures, interest coverage and leverage ratios. While we have historically complied with our financial ratio covenants, we may not be able to comply with these financial covenants in the future, which could cause all amounts outstanding under the credit facility to be due and payable, and which could limit our ability to meet ongoing or future capital needs. Our ability to comply with the covenants and restrictions under our credit facility may be adversely affected by economic, financial, industry or other conditions, some of which may be beyond our control.

The potential breach of any of the covenants or restrictions under our credit facility, unless cured within the applicable grace period, could result in a default that would permit the lenders to declare all amounts outstanding to be due and payable, together with accrued and unpaid interest, and foreclose on the assets that serve as security for our loans under our credit facility. In such an event, we may not have sufficient assets to repay such indebtedness. As a result, any default could have serious consequences to our financial condition.

If we fail to price or market our products appropriately, our revenue and cash flow could be materially reduced.

Our revenues are derived from the sale of licenses for our software products and information services. We generally sell our applications on a perpetual basis but we also have other types of licenses that provide our customers with exclusive use of our applications for a specific period of time. Our information services and research offerings are sold with access to our services and research for a fixed period of time, usually twelve months.

Going forward, we expect to increase our use of term license, subscription and service-based licensing models. As a result, we may incur additional costs in adapting our products and solutions to fit multiple licensing models and determining appropriate sales strategies to leverage these opportunities. If we do not successfully develop, price or market our products and solutions to fit multiple licensing models, our software license fee revenue and cash flows could be adversely affected.

If our investments in product development require greater resources than anticipated, our operating margins could be adversely affected.

We expect to continue to commit significant resources to maintain and improve our existing products, including acquired products and to develop new products. For example, our product development expenses were approximately $17.6 million, or 22% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and approximately $11.1 million, or 17.4% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Our current and future product development efforts may require greater resources than we expect, or may not achieve the market acceptance that we expect and, as a result, we may not achieve margins we anticipate.

We may also be required to price our product enhancements, product features or new products at levels below those anticipated during the product development stage, which could result in lower revenues and margins for that product than we originally anticipated.

We also may experience unforeseen or unavoidable delays in delivering product enhancements, product features or new products due to factors within or outside of our control. We may encounter unforeseen or unavoidable defects or quality control issues when developing product enhancements, product features or new products, which may require additional expenditures to resolve such issues and may affect the reputation our products have for quality and reliability. If we incur greater expenditures than we expect for our product development efforts, or if our products do not succeed, our revenues or margins could be materially adversely affected.

If we fail to adapt to changing technological and market trends or changing customer requirements, our market share could decline and our sales and profitability could be materially adversely affected.

Historically, the business application software market has been characterized by rapidly changing technologies, evolving industry standards, frequent new product introductions and short product lifecycles. The development of new technologically advanced software products is a complex and uncertain process requiring high levels of innovation, as well as accurate anticipation of technological and market trends.

Our future success will largely depend upon our ability to develop and introduce timely new products and product features in order to maintain or enhance our competitive position. The introduction of enhanced or new products requires us to manage the transition from, or integration with, older products in order to minimize disruption in sales of existing products and to manage the overall process in a cost-effective manner. If we do not successfully anticipate changing technological and market trends or changing customer requirements, and we fail to enhance or develop products timely, effectively and in a cost-effective manner, our ability to retain or increase market share may be harmed, and our sales and profitability could be materially adversely affected.

If our existing or prospective customers prefer an application software architecture other than the standards-based technology and platforms upon which we build or support our products, or if we fail to develop our new product enhancements or products to be compatible with the application software architecture preferred by existing and prospective customers, we may not be able to compete effectively, and our software license fee revenue could be materially reduced.

Many of our customers operate their information technology infrastructure on standards-based application software platforms such as J2EE and .NET. A significant portion of our product development is devoted to enhancing our products that deploy these and other standards-based application software platforms.

If our products are not compatible with future technologies and platforms that achieve industry standard status, we will be required to spend material development resources to develop products or product enhancements that are deployable on these platforms. If we are unsuccessful in developing these products or product enhancements, we may lose existing customers or be unable to attract prospective customers.

In addition, our customers may choose competing products other than our offerings based upon their preference for new or different standards-based application software than the software or platforms on which our products operate or are supported. Any of these adverse developments could injure our competitive position and could cause our software license fee revenue to be materially adversely affected.

Our software products are built upon and depend upon operating platforms and software developed and supplied by third parties. As a result, changes in the availability, features and price of, or support for, any of these third-party platforms or software, including as a result of the platforms or software being acquired by a competitor, could materially increase our costs, divert resources and materially adversely affect our competitive position and software license fee revenue.

Our software products are built upon and depend upon operating platforms and software developed by third-party providers. We license from several software providers technologies that are incorporated into our products. Our software may also be integrated with third-party vendor products for the purpose of providing or enhancing necessary functionality.

If any of these operating platforms or software products ceases to be supported by its third-party provider, or if we lose any technology license for software that is incorporated into our products, including as a result of the platforms or software being acquired by a competitor, we may need to devote increased management and financial resources to migrate our software products to an alternative operating platform, identify and license equivalent technology or integrate our software products with an alternative third-party vendor product. In addition, if a provider enhances its product in a manner that prevents us from timely adapting our products to the enhancement, we may lose our competitive advantage, and our existing customers may migrate to a competitor’s product.

Third-party providers may also not remain in business, cooperate with us to support our software products or make their product available to us on commercially reasonable terms or provide an effective substitute product to us and our customers. Any of these adverse developments could materially increase our costs and materially adversely affect our competitive position and software license fee revenue.

If we lose access to, or fail to obtain, third-party software development tools on which our product development efforts depend, we may be unable to develop additional applications and functionality, and our ability to maintain our existing applications may be diminished, which may cause us to incur materially increased costs, reduced margins or lower revenue.

We license software development tools from third parties and use those tools in the development of our products. Consequently, we depend upon third parties’ abilities to deliver quality products, correct errors, support their current products, develop new and enhanced products on a timely and cost-effective basis and respond to emerging industry standards and other technological changes. If any of these third-party development tools become unavailable, if we are unable to maintain or renegotiate our licenses with third parties to use the required development tools, or if third-party developers fail to adequately support or enhance the tools, we may be forced to establish relationships with alternative third-party providers and to rewrite our products using different development tools.

 

40


Table of Contents

We may be unable to obtain other development tools with comparable functionality from other third parties on reasonable terms or in a timely fashion. In addition, we may not be able to complete the development of our products using different development tools, or we may encounter substantial delays in doing so. If we do not adequately replace these software development tools in a timely manner, we may incur additional costs, which may materially reduce our margins or revenue.

If our products fail to perform properly due to undetected defects or similar problems, and if we fail to develop an enhancement to resolve any defect or other software problem, we could be subject to product liability, performance or warranty claims and incur material costs, which could damage our reputation, result in a potential loss of customer confidence and adversely impact our sales, revenue and operating results.

Our software applications are complex and, as a result, defects or other software problems may be found during development, product testing, implementation or deployment. In the past, we have encountered defects in our products as they are introduced or enhanced. If our software contains defects or other software problems:

 

   

we may not be paid;

 

   

a customer may bring a warranty claim against us;

 

   

a customer may bring a claim for their losses caused by our product failure;

 

   

we may face a delay or loss in the market acceptance of our products;

 

   

we may incur unexpected expenses and diversion of resources to remedy the problem;

 

   

our reputation and competitive position may be damaged; and

 

   

significant customer relations problems may result.

Our customers use our software together with software and hardware applications and products from other companies. As a result, when problems occur, it may be difficult to determine the cause of the problem, and our software, even when not the ultimate cause of the problem, may be misidentified as the source of the problem. The existence of defects or other software problems, even when our software is not the source of the problem, might cause us to incur significant costs, divert the attention of our technical personnel from our product development efforts for a lengthy time period, require extensive consulting resources, harm our reputation and cause significant customer relations problems.

If our products fail to perform properly, we may face liability claims notwithstanding that our standard customer agreements contain limitations of liability provisions. A material claim or lawsuit against us could result in significant legal expense, harm our reputation, damage our customer relations, divert management’s attention from our business and expose us to the payment of material damages or settlement amounts. In addition, interruption in the functionality of our products or other defects could cause us to lose new sales and materially adversely affect our license and maintenance services revenues and our operating results.

A breach in the security of our software could harm our reputation and subject us to material claims, which could materially harm our operating results and financial condition.

Fundamental to the use of enterprise application software, including our software, is the ability to securely process, collect, analyze, store and transmit information. Third parties may attempt to breach the security of our solutions, third party applications that our products interface with, as well as customer databases and actual data. In addition, cyber-attacks and similar acts could lead to interruptions and delays in customer processing or a loss or breach of a customer’s data.

We may be responsible, and liable, to our customers for certain breaches in the security of our software products. Any security breaches for which we are, or are perceived to be, responsible, in whole or in part, could subject us to claims, which could harm our reputation and result in significant litigation costs and damage awards or settlement amounts. Any imposition of liability, particularly liability that is not covered by insurance or is in excess of insurance coverage, could materially harm our operating results and financial condition. We might be required to expend significant financial and other resources to protect further against security breaches or to rectify problems caused by any security breach.

If we are not able to retain existing employees or hire qualified new employees, our business could suffer, and we may not be able to execute our business strategy.

Our business strategy and future success depends, in part, upon our ability to attract, train and retain highly skilled managerial, professional service, sales, development, marketing, accounting, administrative and infrastructure-related personnel. The market for these highly skilled employees is generally competitive in the geographies in which we operate.

 

41


Table of Contents

Our business could be adversely affected if we are unable to retain qualified employees or recruit qualified personnel in a timely fashion, or if we are required to incur unexpected increases in compensation costs to retain key employees or meet our hiring goals. If we are not able to retain and attract the personnel we require, it could be more difficult for us to sell and develop our products and services and execute our business strategy, which could lead to a material shortfall in our anticipated results. Furthermore, if we fail to manage these costs effectively, our operating results could be materially adversely affected.

The loss of key members of our senior management team could disrupt the management of our business and materially impair the success of our business.

We believe that our success depends on the continued contributions of the members of our senior management team. We rely on our executive officers and other key managers for the successful performance of our business. Although we have employment arrangements with several members of our senior management team, none of these arrangements prevents any of our employees from leaving us. The unanticipated loss of the services of one or more of our executive officers or key managers, or difficulties transitioning responsibilities following the departure of a key member of senior management, could have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.

If we are not able to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights, we may not be able to compete effectively, and our software license fee revenue could be materially adversely affected.

Our success and ability to compete is dependent in significant degree on our intellectual property, particularly our proprietary software. We rely on a combination of copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to establish and protect our rights in our software and other intellectual property. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy, design around or reverse engineer aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary.

Our competitors may independently develop software that is substantially equivalent or superior to our software. Furthermore, existing copyright law affords only limited protection for our software and may not protect such software in the event competitors independently develop products similar to ours.

We take significant measures to protect the secrecy of our proprietary source code. Despite these measures, unauthorized disclosure of some of or all of our source code could occur. Such unauthorized disclosure could potentially cause our source code to lose intellectual property protection and make it easier for third parties to compete with our products by copying their functionality, structure or operation.

In addition, the laws of some countries may not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Therefore, we may not be able to protect our proprietary software against unauthorized third-party copying or use, which could adversely affect our competitive position and our software license fee revenue. Any litigation to protect our proprietary rights could be time consuming and expensive to prosecute or resolve, result in substantial diversion of management attention and resources, and could be unsuccessful, which could result in the loss of material intellectual property and other proprietary rights.

Potential future claims that we infringe upon third parties’ intellectual property rights could be costly and time-consuming to defend or settle or could result in the loss of significant products, any of which could materially adversely impact our revenue and operating results.

Third parties could claim that we have infringed upon their intellectual property rights. Such claims, whether or not they have merit, could be time consuming to defend, result in costly litigation, divert our management’s attention and resources from day-to-day operations or cause significant delays in our delivery or implementation of our products.

We could also be required to cease to develop, use or market infringing or allegedly infringing products, to develop non-infringing products or to obtain licenses to use infringing or allegedly infringing technology. We may not be able to develop alternative software or to obtain such licenses or, if a license is obtainable, we cannot be certain that the terms of such license would be commercially acceptable.

If a claim of infringement were threatened or brought against us, and if we were unable to license the infringing or allegedly infringing product or develop or license substitute software, or were required to license such software at a high royalty, our revenue and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

In addition, we agree, from time to time, to indemnify our customers against certain claims that our software infringes upon the intellectual property rights of others. We could incur substantial costs in defending our customers against such claims.

Catastrophic events may disrupt our business and could result in materially increased expenses, reduced revenues and profitability and impaired customer relationships.

We are a highly automated business and rely on our network infrastructure, enterprise applications and internal and external technology and infrastructure systems for our development, sales, marketing, support and operational activities. A disruption or failure of any or all of these systems could result from catastrophic events, whether climate related or otherwise, including major telecommunications failures, cyber-attacks, terrorist attacks, fires, earthquakes, storms or other severe weather conditions. A disruption or failure of any or all of these systems could cause system interruptions to our operations, including product development, sales-cycle or product implementation delays, as well as loss of data or other disruptions to our relationships with current or potential customers.

The disaster recovery plans and backup systems that we have in place may not be effective in addressing a catastrophic event that results in the destruction or disruption of any of our critical business or information technology and infrastructure systems. As a result of any of these events, we may not be able to conduct normal business operations and may be required to incur significant expenses in order to resume normal business operations. As a result, our revenues and profitability may be materially adversely affected.

Our revenues are partially dependent upon federal government contractors and their need for compliance with Federal Government contract accounting and reporting standards, as well as data privacy and security requirements. Our failure to anticipate or adapt timely to changes in those standards could cause us to lose government contractor customers and materially adversely affect our revenue generated from these customers.

We derive a significant portion of our revenues from federal government contractors. In 2011 and 2010, over half of our software license fee revenue was generated from federal government contractor customers. In addition our acquisitions of INPUT and WMG, including FSI and FSI Consulting, increase the importance of government contractor customers to our business. Our government contractor customers utilize our Costpoint, GCS Premier or our enterprise project management applications to manage their contracts and projects with the Federal Government in a manner that accounts for expenditures in accordance with the Federal Government contracting accounting standards. These customers also have a requirement to maintain stringent data privacy and security safeguards. In addition, our government contractor customers utilize our GovWin, INPUT and FedSources solutions to obtain critical information about potential government contractor opportunities.

As an example, a key function of our Costpoint application is to enable government contractors to enter, review and organize accounting data in a manner that is compliant with applicable laws and regulations and to easily demonstrate compliance with those laws and regulations. If the Federal Government alters these compliance standards, or if there was any significant problem with the functionality of our software from a compliance or data security perspective, we may be required to modify or enhance our software products to satisfy any new or altered compliance standards. Our inability to effectively and efficiently modify our applications to resolve any compliance issue could result in the loss of government contract customers and materially adversely impact our revenue from these customers.

Significant reductions in the federal government’s budget or changes in budgetary priorities of the federal government from one fiscal-year to another could adversely affect our government contracting customers demand for our products and services and could therefore materially adversely affect our revenue.

Because we derive a substantial portion of our revenue from customers who contract with the federal government, we believe that the success and development of our business will continue to be affected by our customers’ successful participation in federal government contract programs. The funding of U.S. Government programs is generally subject to congressional budget authorization and annual appropriation processes and may be increased or decreased, whether on an overall basis or on a basis that could disproportionately impact our customers. Changes in the size of the federal government’s budget or budgetary priorities from one fiscal year to another could therefore affect our financial performance. The impact, severity and duration of the current U.S. economy situation, the sweeping economic plans adopted by the Federal Government and pressures on the overall size of the federal budget could adversely affect the total funding and/or funding for individual programs in which our customers participate. A significant decline in government expenditures, a shift of expenditures away from programs that our customers support or a change in federal government contracting policies could cause federal government agencies to reduce their purchases under contracts, exercise their right to terminate contracts at any time without penalty or not exercise options to renew contracts. Any such actions could affect our government contracting customers, which could cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated. Among the factors that could seriously affect our federal government contracting customers are:

 

   

changes in budgetary priorities could limit or delay federal government spending generally, or specific departments or agencies in particular, which may reduce demand for our software solutions and services from customers supporting those departments or agencies;

Table of Contents
   

the funding of some or all civilian agencies through continuing resolutions instead of budget appropriations could cause those agencies to modify their budgets or delay contract awards, which could cause our customers supporting those agencies to reduce or defer purchase of our software solutions and services;

 

   

curtailment of the federal government’s use of information technology or professional services could impact our customers who provide information technology or professional services to the federal government; and

 

   

the federal government’s decision to terminate existing contracts for convenience, or to not renew expiring contracts, could reduce demand for our software solutions and services from our customers whose contracts have been terminated or have not been renewed.

Any significant downsizing, consolidation or insolvency of our federal government contractor customers resulting from a government shutdown, changes in procurement policies, budget reductions, loss of government contracts, delays in or uncertainties regarding the timing or amount of contract awards or other similar procurement obstacles could materially adversely impact our customers’ demand for our software products and related services and maintenance.

Impairment of our goodwill or intangible assets may adversely impact our results of operations.

We have acquired several businesses which, in aggregate, have resulted in the recording of goodwill valued at approximately $176.6 million and other purchased intangible assets valued at approximately $72.7 million as of March 31, 2011. This represents a significant portion of the assets recorded on our balance sheet. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed periodically for impairment. Other intangible assets that are deemed to have finite useful lives will continue to be amortized over their useful lives but are also reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable.

We performed tests for impairment of goodwill and intangible assets as of December 31, 2010 and recognized an impairment loss of $1.5 million in connection with tradenames acquired from a prior acquisition whose carrying amount exceeded its fair value in 2010. There can be no assurances that additional charges to operations will not occur in the event of a future impairment. In addition, the decrease in the price of our stock that has occurred from time to time and may occur in the future may also affect whether we experience an impairment in future periods. If an impairment is deemed to exist in the future, we would be required to write down the recorded value of these intangible assets to their then current estimated fair values. If a write down were to occur, it could materially adversely impact our results of operations and our stock price.

If we were to identify material weaknesses in our internal controls in the future, these material weaknesses may impede our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements, result in inaccurate financial reporting or restatements of our financial statements, subject our stock to delisting and materially harm our business reputation and stock price.

As a public company, we are required to file annual and quarterly periodic reports containing our financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission within prescribed time periods. As part of The NASDAQ Global Select Market listing requirements, we are also required to provide our periodic reports, or make them available, to our stockholders within prescribed time periods.

If we were to identify material weaknesses in our internal control in the future, including with respect to internal controls relating to companies that we have acquired or may acquire in the future, the required audit or review of our financial statements by our independent registered public accounting firm may be delayed. In addition, we may not be able to produce reliable financial statements, file our financial statements as part of a periodic report in a timely manner with the Securities and Exchange Commission or comply with The NASDAQ Global Select Market listing requirements. If we are required to restate our financial statements in the future, any specific adjustment may cause our operating results and financial condition, as restated, on an overall basis to be materially impacted.

If these events were to occur, our common stock listing on The NASDAQ Global Select Market could be suspended or terminated and, absent a waiver, we also would be in default under our credit agreement and our lenders could accelerate any obligation we have to them. We, or members of our management, could also be subject to investigation and sanction by the Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulatory authorities and to stockholder lawsuits. In addition, our stock price could decline, we could face significant unanticipated costs, management’s attention could be diverted and our business reputation could be materially harmed.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock

Our stock price has been volatile and could continue to remain volatile for a variety of reasons, resulting in a substantial loss on your investment.

The stock markets generally have experienced extreme and unpredictable volatility, often unrelated to the operating performance of the individual companies whose securities are traded publicly. Broad market fluctuations and general economic and financial conditions may materially adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

Significant price fluctuations in our common stock also could result from a variety of other factors, including:

 

   

actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results or financial condition;

 

   

our competitors’ announcements of significant contracts, acquisitions or strategic investments;

 

   

changes in our growth rates or our competitors’ growth rates;

 

   

conditions of the project-focused software industry;

 

   

securities analysts’ commentary about us or our industry;

 

   

the limited trading volume of our common stock; and

 

   

any other factor described in this “Risk Factors” section of this Annual Report.

In addition, if the market value of our common stock falls below the book value of our assets, we could be forced to recognize an impairment of our goodwill or other assets. If this were to occur, our operating results would be adversely affected and the price of our common stock could be negatively impacted.

Future sales of our common stock by existing stockholders could cause our stock price to decline.

New Mountain Partners II, L.P., New Mountain Affiliated Investors II, L.P., and Allegheny New Mountain Partners, L.P. (collectively, the “New Mountain Funds”), our controlling stockholders, own approximately 60% of outstanding common stock. If the New Mountain Funds were to sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market or if the market perceives that our stockholders may sell shares of our common stock, the market price of our common stock could decrease significantly.

The New Mountain Funds have the right, subject to certain conditions, to require us to register the sale of their shares under the federal securities laws. If this right is exercised, holders of other shares and, in certain circumstances, stock options may sell their shares alongside the New Mountain Funds, which could cause the prevailing market price of our common stock to decline. The majority of our common stock (and all shares of common stock underlying options outstanding under our 2005 Stock Option Plan and certain shares of common stock underlying options and restricted stock outstanding under our 2007 Stock Award and Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”) are, directly or indirectly, subject to a registration rights agreement.

We have also filed registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering shares subject to options and restricted stock outstanding under our 2005 Stock Option Plan and Amended and Restated 2007 Plan and shares reserved for issuance under our 2007 Plan and our Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

A decline in the trading price of our common stock due to the occurrence of any future sales might impede our ability to raise capital through the issuance of additional shares of our common stock or other equity securities and may cause stockholders to lose part or all of their investment in our shares of common stock.

Our largest stockholders and their affiliates have substantial control over us and this could limit other stockholders’ ability to influence the outcome of key transactions, including any change of control.

Our largest stockholders, the New Mountain Funds, own approximately 60% of our outstanding common stock and 100% of our Class A common stock. As a result of their significant ownership percentage, and as long as they own a majority of the outstanding shares of our Class A common stock and at least one-third of the outstanding shares of our common stock based on the rights conferred by an investor rights agreement, the New Mountain Funds are able to control all matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and the approval of mergers or other significant corporate transactions. The New Mountain Funds will retain the right to elect a majority of our directors so long as they own our Class A common stock and at least one-third of our outstanding common stock.

The New Mountain Funds are also entitled to collect a transaction fee, unless waived by them, on a transaction by transaction basis, equal to 2% of the transaction value of each significant transaction exceeding $25 million in value directly or indirectly involving us or any of our controlled affiliates, including acquisitions, dispositions, mergers or other similar transactions, debt, equity or other financing transactions, public or private offerings of our securities and joint ventures, partnerships and minority investments. Although in 2009 the New Mountain Funds waived their right to collect a transaction fee in connection with our stock rights offering and the amendment of our Credit Agreement, their right to collect transaction fees otherwise remains in effect and continues until the

New Mountain Funds cease to beneficially own at least 15% of our outstanding common stock or a change of control occurs. In 2010, New Mountain Capital, L.L.C. received transaction fees of $1.6 million in connection with our acquisition of Maconomy and $1.2 million in connection with our acquisition of INPUT. New Mountain Capital, L.L.C. agreed to waive any transaction fee payable in connection with the Company’s acquisition of WMG.

The New Mountain Funds may have interests that differ from other stockholders’ interests, and they may vote in a way with which other stockholders disagree and that may be adverse to their interests. The concentration of ownership of our common stock may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change of control of our company, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our company and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

If we issue additional shares of our common stock, stockholders could experience dilution.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 200,000,000 shares of common stock, of which there were 69,353,870 shares outstanding as of April 30, 2011. The issuance of additional shares of our common stock or securities convertible into shares of our common stock could result in dilution of other stockholders’ ownership interest in us. In addition, if we issue additional shares of our common stock at a price that is less than the fair value of our common stock, other stockholders could, depending on their participation in that issuance, also experience immediate dilution of the value of their shares relative to what their value would have been had our common stock been issued at fair value. This dilution could be substantial.

Our stockholders do not have the same protections available to other stockholders of NASDAQ-listed companies because we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of The NASDAQ Global Select Market’s standards and, as a result, qualify for, and may rely on, exemptions from several corporate governance requirements.

Our controlling stockholders, the New Mountain Funds, control a majority of our outstanding common stock and have the ability to elect a majority of our board of directors. As a result, we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the rules governing companies with stock quoted on The NASDAQ Global Select Market. Under these rules, a company as to which an individual, a group or another company holds more than 50% of the voting power is considered a “controlled company” and is exempt from several corporate governance requirements, including requirements that:

 

   

a majority of the board of directors consists of independent directors;

 

   

compensation of officers be determined or recommended to the board of directors by a majority of its independent directors or by a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors; and

 

   

director nominees be selected or recommended for election by a majority of the independent directors or by a nominating committee that is composed entirely of independent directors.

We have availed ourselves of these exemptions. Accordingly, our stockholders do not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of other companies that are subject to all of The NASDAQ Global Select Market corporate governance requirements as long as the New Mountain Funds own a majority of our outstanding common stock.

Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents, Delaware law and our shareholders’ agreement could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company and may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

We are a Delaware corporation, and the anti-takeover provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control by prohibiting us (as a public company with common stock listed on The NASDAQ Global Select Market) from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years after the person becomes an interested stockholder, even if a change in control would be beneficial to our existing stockholders. In addition, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a change in our management or control over us that stockholders may consider favorable. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws:

 

   

authorize the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock that could be issued by our board of directors to thwart a takeover attempt;

 

   

provide the New Mountain Funds, through their stock ownership, with the ability to elect a majority of our directors if they beneficially own one-third or more of our common stock;

 

   

do not provide for cumulative voting;

 

   

provide that vacancies on the board of directors, including newly created directorships, may be filled only by a majority vote of directors then in office (subject to the rights of the Class A stockholders);

 

   

limit the calling of special meetings of stockholders;

 

   

permit stockholder action by written consent if the New Mountain Funds and its affiliates own one-third or more of our common stock;

 

46


Table of Contents
   

require supermajority stockholder voting to effect certain amendments to our certificate of incorporation; and

 

   

require stockholders to provide advance notice of new business proposals and director nominations under specific procedures.

In addition, certain provisions of our shareholders’ agreement require that certain covered persons (as defined in the shareholders’ agreement) vote their shares of our common stock in favor of certain transactions in which the New Mountain Funds propose to sell all or any portion of their shares of our common stock, or in which we propose to sell or otherwise transfer for value all or substantially all of the stock, assets or business of the Company.
